just because it looks like a wreck on the outside doesn'y mean it is under the hood, as long as the prime mover and other important components inside the carbody are operable, it could move under it's own power.

yessir but with numerous copper thieves running around lately, its hard to believe. Plus people breaking into the cab and stealing guages (why?) and yanking wires out of the countrol stand..it..it just does not look good for this locomotive.

Thanks for the photos, Steve! I only hope they can get up here in time to save the other NCRA geeps in Eureka, before they get scraped! They scraped some NCRA Diffco dump cars that were only 50ft (maybe) down the tracks from the stranded geeps about two months ago!!! Seems like those could have come in handy in repairing the line from this end...

Last I heard they were just pulling derelic equipment to shellevill and light/training runs up as far north as Santa Rosa..no industries being served yet because of all the drama with Novato, which says they cannot haul revanue frieght until this mess is cleaned up.

On the NCRA website a long time ago I found a PDF file of all the industries and companies wanting to ship frieght, including the ones that already have contracts.

any way we could get these photos..or does anybody live near Roseville that could snap a few pics? I don't have a trainorders acount and im not planning on getting one, but I sure would like to know what our genset looks like...
